Azores Overview
What appeals to many about the Açores (Azores) is their isolation. This is not a place you stumble upon while driving the back roads. The archipelago of nine islands lies in the mid-Atlantic, about 900 miles from Lisbon and 2,330 miles from North America, and stretches over 370 miles of ocean. Beaches aren't the lure either. The coast is often rocky, the waves rough, and the currents strong.
